'I imagine that Chairman Cummings will end up referring him' to the Justice Department for alleged perjury, Hill said.
Democratic Rep. Katie Hill on Sunday said she doesn’t know whether Donald Trump’s former attorney and “personal fixer” Michael Cohen lied to lawmakers when he said he “never asked for” a pardon from the president.
"I don’t know if he lied or not," Hill responded."Chairman Cummings is incredibly deliberate. I know that he's reviewing the entire testimony, all the transcripts with Mr. [Rep. Jim Jordan ], who also is going to make sure that we get to the bottom of this." Last week, Lanny Davis, Cohen’s current attorney, told the Wall Street Journal that his client directed his former-attorney “to explore possibilities of a pardon at one point with Trump’s lawyer Rudy Giuliani as well as other lawyers advising President Trump.”
"When Chairman Cummings says something like I’m going to nail you to the cross, he means it," Hill added, referring to Cummings’ comments to Cohen during the hearing.Cohen was sentenced to three years in prison after pleading guilty to several crimes, including tax fraud, campaign finance violations and lying to Congress.
